Answer:
The answer to your question is w = 1.2
Step-by-step explanation:
Data
Equation 7(w + 2) + 0.5w = 5
Expand 7w + 14 + 0.5w = 5
Simplify like terms (7w + 0.5w) + 14 = 5
7.5w + 14 = 5
Subtract 14 in both sides
7.5w + 14 - 14 = 4 - 15
Simplify
7.5w = - 9
Divide both side by 7.5 7.5/7.5w = 9/7.5
Simplify
w = 1.2
